To begin, this is a board TEST question rather than a design question: Has anyone successfully generated digital In-Circuit Test vectors for the STM32F4xx families using the Keysight 3070 or Teradyne scan tools? I successfully modeled the part describing the cortex and Jtag cores in a part description library - this way both core's instruction registers are accounted for etc, however it didnt' work in practice.  Bottom line, i just get NOTHING out of TDO during test. I can successfully program the parts all day with the st-link v2 pod, so i know signal and device integrity is good. but board test is another matter.  This makes me wonder if there are unpublished compliance pins besides nrst.   So question to the forums - anyone out there doing board test? if so any boundary scan successes to report? i have had sucess with the STM32F103RB, but the 407 i'm getting nowhere.  thoughts?

regards

RB

    First hit on googling 'STM32 boundary scan':

    A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked.A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.
